On April 6, a total of 26 students from Wellington Landings Middle School competed in the semi-annual Noetic Learning Math Contest, which is a national mathematics contest for elementary and middle school students.
The goal of the competition is to encourage student interest in math, to develop problem-solving skills and to inspire students to excel in math. More than 32,000 students representing 763 schools across the country took part in this spring’s contest.
